concubine auspicious
Chapter 56
Chapter 56
This is the end of one catastrophe, but it is the beginning of another catastrophe.Because the King of War declared that he would conquer the remaining eight countries and unify the nine continents.His steadfast oath shocked the people of the Nine Kingdoms Continent.It seems that a storm is about to hit the entire continent, and a massacre is about to be staged.
On September [-]th, in the middle of the first month, Daxing changed hands, and the king of war proclaimed himself king in Daicheng, and Daxing was renamed "Shengxin".
After three days and three nights of red rain, the sun just showed its face.On a sunny afternoon, the villagers of Liushi Village were hoeing the withered crops on the cultivated land.Everyone started talking while whispering.As we chatted about the topic, we naturally talked about the affairs of the country, and even the current king.
"Hey, the King of War is too violent. How should I live this day." The farmer wiped his sweat and said in a deep voice.
Another farmer beside him immediately echoed, "Yes, the King of War also broke down the last city of Daxing. I heard that Emperor Xiao was killed by the King of War himself."
"What about the empress?" the round-faced peasant woman asked suspiciously.
"Queen Liu? I'm afraid it's bad luck!" The farmer was smoking a big pipe, blowing out smoke rings.
The round-faced peasant woman nodded in agreement, shook her head and said, "Didn't the empress give birth to a little prince? I don't know what happened to them. This world is too chaotic. Let it go, let it go, we little people can't do it either. I still think about what to do next. I’d better do some manual work and go to the city to sell some money.”
Everyone looked at the crops with no harvest, and they were suddenly bored.
After a while, there was another silent sigh.
In the distance, the thin man Changsheng just came back from the city.He carried some medicines and a live fish in his hand.Chang Sheng lowered his head and ran back to the small tile-roofed house of the two brothers, pushed the door open and entered.He closed the door behind his back, turned around and said roughly, "Second Brother, I'm back. You go to cook the medicine, and I'll cook the fish."
Younger brother Jun Sheng immediately ran out from another room and took the medicine in his hand.
On the stone bed in the middle, Mingzhu fell into a coma again due to lack of energy and blood.Dr. Wang had seen it before, and he couldn't believe it.A person without a heartbeat is still alive.This is really strange.Doctor Wang instructed the two brothers a few more words before leaving.
No, Changsheng went to buy medicine and fish.
After a while, the medicine was cooked.Live fish are also boiled into delicious fish soup.
The two brothers, one carrying medicine and the other carrying soup, rushed into the room one after the other.
Mingzhu has already woken up, but her body is too weak to move.After finally drinking the medicine and some soup, I felt warmer.She still didn't have much strength in her limbs, so she could only look at the two of them helplessly, and said with difficulty, "I want to see the King of War."
King of War?She wants to see the king?
"Girl, who are you?" The two brothers looked at her cautiously and asked.They found her in the imperial tomb. She slept in the mausoleum of the imperial tomb. Could it be that she is some concubine?Or which princess?Only women with such status can sleep in the imperial tomb after death.
However, she didn't die.This is also strange.
Mingzhu didn't know why she was here, nor did she know the current situation outside, she felt a little disturbed.In order to clear her mind, she asked back, "Who are you?"
"We..." the two brothers said, glancing at each other, "elder brother lives forever, younger brother lives forever."
It turned out to be two brothers!
Mingzhu nodded and asked again, "Then why am I here? Where did you find me?" After all, she hasn't found her body after searching for a long time, right?There are still too many questions, like a knotted mess, waiting for her to figure it out.
"Why should we answer you, you should answer us first! Who are you?" Younger brother Jun Sheng's eyes widened.
Mingzhu raised the corners of her lips and smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, no matter what, I should thank you for saving me. Without you, I can't survive. Thank you."
Seeing her smiling, the two brothers touched their heads in embarrassment.
"My name is Mingzhu, Ye Mingzhu." She said her name with a smile.
When Changsheng and Junsheng heard her name, they thought that they found her in the imperial tomb, and immediately thought of Hongdi's daughter, Princess Mingzhu of Daxing.But, isn't Princess Pearl already dead?And he died two years ago!No, is it back to life?
"You are Princess Pearl? Aren't you dead? You are not a ghost, are you?" Chang Sheng swallowed.
Seeing that they were frightened, Mingzhu quickly explained, "No, I'm not a ghost, I'm a human. There's a reason for this, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. But I hope you can tell me where you found me. Also, where is the King of War now?"
"We two brothers make a living by robbing tombs. We found you in the imperial mausoleum that night. As for the King of War, he has captured Daicheng, killed Emperor Xiao, and became king in Daicheng." Jun Sheng said frankly , and hastily added, "Your Highness, we did not steal anything from the imperial mausoleum!"
What?He killed Dong Xiaotian?
Mingzhu felt dizzy for a while and couldn't breathe.She was still one step too late, still one step too late.She tightened the quilt and said softly, "Can you take me to him? I must see him!"
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, we are just ordinary people, how could we meet the King of War!" Chang Sheng said in a difficult way.
"Then can you send me to Daicheng? Can you send me there?" Mingzhu begged.
The two brothers were taken aback for a moment, feeling that one head was two older.They seem to have found themselves in a big trouble!
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng couldn't resist her pleading, so they nodded in agreement in a daze.As soon as they agreed, they were immediately annoyed.He wanted to repent, but seeing Mingzhu smiling wildly, he couldn't bear to speak, so he swallowed all the words of repentance.Hey, some people are just so scary, they have met their nemesis.
That night, the three of them went to bed early.
The next day, before dawn, Chang Sheng opened the door, and Jun Sheng walked out of the house with Pearl on his back.Changsheng secretly led the ox cart of a family in the village, and put down a piece of silver.Jun Sheng put the pearl in the haystack, and he ran to the front of the ox cart, driving with his elder brother Chang Sheng.
The bullock cart slowly ran towards Daicheng.
Mingzhu closed her eyes, but his image was all in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of it.
You finally got your revenge.After killing Dong Xiaotian, he finally had his revenge.are you happyYou finally got everything you wanted.What about me, do you remember me?Maybe, maybe you have already forgotten me.But I still have no hesitation and run towards you.
Please tell me if you loved me.
※※※
Daicheng, the state official residence.
Since the red rain, the hot weather has eased a lot.The sky is cloudless, a scene of prosperity and peace.A white pigeon flew from a distance, it flew into the mansion, and landed on the window of a wing.A small piece of paper was tied around the white pigeon's ankle, apparently to convey a message.
Zhongli approached the window and untied the note from the white dove's feet.Let the white dove fly, open the note and have a look.
There was a line of delicate handwriting on the note - Miss has arrived, please return quickly.
Zhong Li turned back to Feng Zhanxiu again, and said in a deep voice, "Wang, Yun Ni Feige sent the letter, Miss has arrived in the capital, please come back quickly."
Feng Zhanxiu didn't wear a bright yellow dragon robe, but wore a black Chinese dress in his own way.He has always loved purple, but this time he wore black for many days, probably to mourn for someone.Under the handsome sword eyebrows, a pair of long and narrow eyes were tightly closed.He was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, and his whole body was frighteningly quiet.
After hearing Zhongli's reply, he did not respond for a long time.
After a long while, I finally uttered two words, "Let's go."
"The Liu family father and daughter..." Zhongli asked again, waiting for his order.
"Take it." Feng Zhanxiu said coldly, without the slightest warmth.
Zhongli accepted the order with his fists clasped, "Yes!" He hurriedly turned around and ran out of the study.
In the mansion, the twelve cavalry had been idle for several days.Since this last battle was also fought, they felt that there was nothing to do.But the eldest sister, January, told them that this was not the last battle.Because the king wants to continue to attack the other eight countries and completely unify the mainland before he can give up.
Therefore, they still have a lot of tasks to do.
They don't know how long they can live and how long they can be with the king.But the only thing they can do is to stick to their positions until the last moment, until the moment they fall down.I don't think about the rest of the things, I don't have time to think about it, and I don't allow myself to have this extravagant hope.
An ordinary life is a luxury.
In the courtyard, the girls practiced their fists and feet in twos and threes, in order to meet the battle that will soon follow.
"Go back to the city immediately and take the Liu family father and daughter!" Zhongli walked into the courtyard and gave instructions to the twelve cavalrymen.
"Got it!" January nodded.
After the crowd left, the twelve cavalrymen thought of Liu Shuiyao and couldn't help sighing.
Liu Qing and Liu Shuiyao are now locked in the same room, which is equivalent to imprisonment.Since that day, Liu Shuiyao was probably overly sad, so she kept crying, crying all the time.When the tears run dry, blood flows out.It was too late when the imperial physician came to treat her, and she had already lost her eyes from crying.
Such a turn of events makes people tremble endlessly.
What kind of pain is that that makes people cry until their eyes are blind.
Liu Shuiyao became very silent, not saying a word.She can even be said to have become dazed, maybe she has gone crazy.When alone, she would curl up in a corner, muttering to herself.When the person approached, she remained silent again, embracing herself in panic.
She is so pitiful.
Eldest sister Yiyue glanced back and said softly, "Third sister, fourth sister, you two take care of the Liu family's father and daughter."
"Yes! Sister!" The two replied in unison.In the next second, the girls acted in turn, and they wanted to rush back to the capital.In the capital city, the miss may have been escorted safely by Liu Yi and Fu Rong.The master has finally ascended the throne as the king, which can be regarded as living up to expectations.The king of war, this should be God's will.Due to the haste, the army regrouped and set off late.
But after a while, the carriages and horses outside the mansion were all ready.
Feng Zhan Xiufei got on his horse, gave a drink, and galloped away.
Everyone immediately followed, and the dust flew up.
※※※
ten days later
At the end of the flat road, a bullock cart approached slowly.
The weather was sweltering and hot.
Changsheng kept on driving, Junsheng turned his head to look behind him from time to time, and saw Mingzhu lying on the haystack, her little face was flushed from the sun, but her lips were dry and white.The body has not recovered in the first place, and the fatigue of the journey is added, so how can it be comfortable?Jun Sheng had no choice but to take out a piece of clothing from the bundle, and put it on her body carefully.
Simply put the clothes over her head to prevent the sun from burning her.
A group of people rushed forward suddenly, and the horses and carriages galloped past them, and the oncoming dust made people cough uncontrollably.All I saw was that the man in the lead was as handsome as a monster or a fairy, but he was so cold that people were afraid.Changsheng and Junsheng couldn't help shivering, feeling sorry for each other.
Then, a group of people staggered past them like this.
The two brothers spit on the ground, Jun Sheng wiped the dust off his face, and couldn't help nagging, "What a bad luck. Look, look, what the hell."
"Okay, stop talking." Chang Sheng muttered.
Mingzhu finally wakes up faintly after hearing their conversation.The navy blue clothes blocked her view, and she slowly reached out and grabbed the clothes.At the end of the avenue, the group happened to turn the corner and disappeared.When I opened my eyes, I saw billowing dust.
At the end of September, the capital.
"The King of War returns to the city—" With a roar, the city gate opened wide.
"Long live my king, long live my king - long live my king, long live my king -"
The people along the road knelt down, bowed their heads and shouted.
In the midst of the shouts that resounded through the sky, and in the support of the worshiping crowd, Feng Zhanxiu rode his horse and galloped into the city, his eyes fixed on the front, unmoved by anything or anyone.Then Zhongli and the twelve cavalry followed.In March and April, the two took turns driving the carriage, and the carriage ran slowly.
A group of people galloped through the streets of the capital city and headed straight for the palace.
As soon as I ran into the palace, I saw Yun Ni waiting at the Wuzhong Gate.
Feng Zhanxiu pulled up the reins and said "Yu——".He flew off the horse, but he didn't give a single shot out of the corner of his eye.
"Wang, Miss is in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Yun Ni lowered her head respectfully and said softly.
Feng Zhanxiu responded silently, walked past her quietly, and hurried towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.His figure flashed past her, Yun Ni clenched her fists, suddenly felt sour, but could only hold her breath and swallow it all.She silently followed behind him, and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation together with the rest.
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Murong Feixue was sitting in a wheelchair, looking out of the hall without blinking.She is waiting for his return, just like she was waiting for her king back then.Time flies, and decades have passed in the blink of an eye. Her face has aged, her temples have turned gray, and she finally waited for this day.
Once made a blood oath, he must avenge him, and he must let Zhanxiu take back everything.
Now, the first step has been successful.
When Murong Feixue was in a trance, a tall figure suddenly flashed in front of him.She didn't have time to come back to her senses, and vaguely saw him as the face in her memory.With tears in her eyes, she whispered, "Welcome my king back to the palace."
"Aunt." Feng Zhanxiu went up to meet her, "There is no need to do this."
"Miss is well!" Behind him, a group of people kowtowed and shouted.
Murong Feixue shook her head, looked at Feng Zhanxiu and said resolutely, "Now you are the king, even though I am your aunt, I have to be like this." She smiled at everyone again, and said slowly, "Get up quickly, Stop kneeling, you have all worked hard. Yun Ni, take them down to rest."
"Yes!"
"Subordinates retire!"
Yun Ni retreated with a group of people.
Immediately, only Feng Zhanxiu and Murong Feixue were left in the hall.
Murong Feixue glanced at him with her phoenix eyes, but seeing that he was dressed in black, she exhorted with concern, "Emperors have been wearing yellow dragon robes since ancient times, and you should change into them too."
"I don't like it." Feng Zhanxiu said lightly.
"Ok, ok, aunt won't force you." Murong Feixue had already heard about the breaking of the columbarium by Dong Xiaotian, and she didn't want to argue with him on these trivial matters.Just thinking of the Liu family's father and daughter, the female voice sank a bit, "What about Liu Qing and Liu Shuiyao? How do you plan to deal with them?"
Feng Zhanxiu had no expression on his face, "It's all up to my aunt."
"Okay, then kill them." Murong Feixue said calmly.
"Except for Liu Shuiyao." He added calmly, his eagle eyes were deep.
Murong Feixue looked at him suspiciously, took his hand, and clenched it slightly, "Zhanxiu, don't leave any remnants behind. It's like a weed, afraid it will grow again when the spring wind blows..."
"That child can't be killed either." Feng Zhanxiu interrupted without waiting for her to finish speaking.
"You..." Murong Feixue was impatient, unexpectedly he would refute her.She took a deep breath and held her temper patiently. She only treated him as a child throwing a temper tantrum.She patted his hand and promised, "Okay, aunt, I promise you everything, if Liu Shuiyao won't kill, neither will that child."
Feng Zhanxiu just nodded his forehead and stopped talking.
"Then you won't go back on your promise to aunt, will you? If you go back on it, then aunt will go back on it too." What Murong Feixue was referring to was naturally marrying Yun Ni.
Yun Ni is the candidate she has chosen thousands of times, and it is the candidate she is most assured of.Since ancient times, emperors must not be affectionate or emotional.If you are sentient, you will only put yourself in a difficult situation.Wasn't that the case with the former king?She will not let Zhan Xiu make the same mistakes again, because she knows that he has no love for Yun Ni, so he is the best candidate.
"It's all up to my aunt." Feng Zhanxiu repeated that sentence again.
Murong Feixue stared at him, only to realize that his eyes were icy cold.She suddenly felt distressed, and stretched out her hand to caress his face, stroked his hair, feeling sorry for his gray hair all night.But in the end, he still hardened his heart and said softly, "Auntie did this for you. Do you understand?"
"Zhanxiu knows." His voice was dull without any ups and downs.
※※※
It was night, and the palace was silent.The battle ended temporarily, and finally ushered in a short period of peace.After two years of war, it takes some time to recuperate.All the eunuchs and maids in the palace have been changed. Of course, there is only one end for them, and that is death.No one was spared except the father-in-law.
The father-in-law and the former princess were locked in the deep palace, and could no longer take a step.
That night, Liu Qing was thrown into a sky prison and given a glass of poisoned wine.
Feng Zhanxiu no longer went to Pingle Palace, he directly ordered people to seal the palace and no one was allowed to enter.Violators - kill.And the king of his country will naturally live in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.It was already midnight at this time, and the guards outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation were guarding heavily.The dark bedroom was not lit.
The moonlight shone faintly, covering his whole body, outlining his lonely figure.
He sat alone in the chair without making a sound.
It's just that he still holds the luminous pearl in his hand, holding it tightly.
A cold orb has no temperature.Just like his heart, there has been no temperature since then.
He suddenly raised the corners of his lips, as if thinking of something.She moved her lips and hummed something.I can vaguely hear it, it is a beautiful ballad, "There is a beautiful woman, I will never forget it when I see it, I will not see her for a day, and I will think about it like crazy... Don't let me fly, make me fall, make me fall..."
Anyway, it doesn't matter who you marry anyway.
It doesn't matter who you marry.
At noon the next day, the King of War announced to the whole country that he would marry Yun Ni as the empress ten days later, the whole country would celebrate together, and the tax would be exempted for one year.
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng finally arrived in Daicheng in an ox cart, but what they learned next was also shocking.Mingzhu asked the two of them to inquire, but who knew that King Zhan left Daicheng a few days ago and rushed to the capital.When Mingzhu knew this fact, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Lying on the bed in the wing room of the inn, she murmured, "Could it be fate."
They seem to keep missing, she keeps following him, and keeps failing to stay with him.What should she do to stand in front of him.It's just that I want to appear in front of him dignifiedly in my own appearance, why is it so difficult.In this world, how can there be such a difficult thing.
Mingzhu felt sad in her heart, and her expression was even more anxious.
Sitting on the chair, Chang Sheng couldn't bear to see her sad expression.Although he didn't know what happened, he still said with concern, "I'm a rough man in Changsheng, so I can't say anything consoling. Anyway, that's all. Let's go back to the capital, can't we?"
When Mingzhu heard this, her dazed gaze became more focused.
Suddenly there was a burst of firecrackers outside the inn, mixed with cheers and cheers.
The three looked around in confusion, and Jun Sheng hurried out of the wing to find out.After a while, he found out the news and rushed back.Jun Sheng seemed a little flustered. He rushed into the wing and closed the door behind his back, "Brother, Your Royal Highness, the notice posted on the imperial list said..."
He faltered, glanced cautiously at Mingzhu, feeling extremely troubled.
Mingzhu grasped the quilt intuitively, and asked softly, "What did the notice say?"
"Don't scribble, tell me quickly!" Chang Sheng couldn't wait any longer, and shouted in a deep voice.
Jun Sheng stomped his feet, and had no choice but to say what was written on the notice, "The King of War is about to accept his empress!"
boom -
Mingzhu felt dizzy for a while, felt itchy for a moment, and had difficulty breathing.He, he, he is going to accept the empress?Who is he going to marry?She stared at Jun Sheng, trying to calm down her mood, but her voice trembled, "Who does he want as queen?"
"Yun Ni!" Jun Sheng thought for a while, then blurted out.
Mingzhu's eyes were in a daze, and she said stupidly, "So it's Yun Ni. So it's her."
He wants to marry her as his queen, hehe, he wants to marry Yun Ni as his queen.Risking her soul being scattered, she insisted on staying in the middle of the two time and space. She became a beautiful boy and a court lady, and she just wanted to be with him.Originally, she thought it would be fine to accompany him, but now that she heard that he was going to marry another woman, she felt such pain in her heart.
Mingzhu just raised the corners of her lips, smiling a little vainly.
Maybe from the very beginning, from the first sight, she fell in love with him.It's just that her self-righteousness and his self-righteousness have made all kinds of misses between them.She is just an experiment without father or mother. She never believed in love, and she was even more afraid that she would be hurt because of love.
At this moment, she suddenly realized, Feng Zhanxiu, I love you more than I imagined.
Mingzhu bit her lip and said with a smile, "Don't call me Your Highness the Princess anymore. Also, I'm going to trouble you again. Send me back to the capital immediately, okay?"
Changsheng and Junsheng looked at her helplessly, feeling that this trouble was not a little big.
Don't call her Your Highness Princess?What is that called?
"Miss!" The two brothers thought for a while and shouted in unison.
Immediately, the three of Mingzhu rushed from Daicheng to the capital again.This time the journey can be said to be a blunder, which no one expected.The ox cart has also been replaced with a carriage, in order to speed up the process.Inside the carriage, Mingzhu developed a low fever.She closed her eyes, the sadness was beyond words.
※※※
Royal Palace in the capital city
Murong Feixue stayed with Yun Ni all day long, arranging the marriage matters.Yun Ni was a little embarrassed, and smiled even more shyly.The two chatted without saying a word.Yun Ni called out "Miss" out of habit, and Murong Feixue immediately patted her hand and warned, "I have to change my words from now on, come on, call me aunt."
Yun Ni hesitated, then Rourou called out, "Auntie."
"Hey, dear." Murong Feixue nodded in satisfaction, reaching out to stroke her hair, "Yun Ni, you are a good boy. The first time my aunt saw you, she liked you from the bottom of her heart."
At that time, Yun Ni was still very young, and the helpless little girl had no choice but to sell herself to bury her father.The crowd surrounded her, and they kept looking at her with pity.Such a small child just lowered his head, timidly not knowing what to do.She and Zhan Xiu walked into the crowd, and Zhan Xiu suddenly threw the money bag at her, giving her enough money to bury her father.
And that money is all their remaining property.
The little girl raised her head, and she finally saw the other person's face.Very delicate, with gratitude, fear, and loyalty in those eyes.From that moment on, she fell in love with Yun Ni.Or, maybe, she fell in love with the loyalty in Yun Ni's eyes.She knew that she had finally found a reliable confidant for Zhan Xiu.
Afterwards, he saved Zhongli again, and became even more powerful.
It's a pity that she fell ill later and couldn't afford it.Zhan Xiu walked the rest of the way alone.By his side, there are Yunni, Zhongli, Twelve Cavalrymen, Fu Rong and Liu Yi.
After Yun Ni told her, she recalled the past, held her hand gratefully, and said softly, "Auntie, Yun Ni will never forget you, let alone Wang."
"In a few days, you will become the queen, and you will even assist the king." Murong Feixue said with relief.
When Yun Ni thought of marrying him and becoming his wife, her heart throbbed and she nodded silently.She secretly loved him for many years, and only buried this love deeply in her heart.I used to think that it would be impossible, but now, the dream is about to come true.She was afraid that this was just a dream, so she dared not fall asleep every night.
I'm afraid that when I wake up, it's all empty.
"If you stop his thoughts, he will give up." Murong Feixue said suddenly, with deep eyes, "If you listen to my aunt, you won't make mistakes."
Yun Ni was startled for a moment, and stopped responding.
I didn't know what was going on, but I was suddenly worried.It seems that something bad is about to happen.
"Long live my king!" Outside Qianning Palace, the little eunuch replied softly.
Murong Feixue and Yun Ni immediately looked up, only to see Feng Zhanxiu, still in black, walking into the hall with a calm and handsome face.He didn't look happy at all, as if he wasn't the one who was going to get married.Or maybe, he never took this wedding seriously.
From beginning to end, he was an outsider.
Feng Zhanxiu walked up to Murong Feixue, and called out heavily, "Auntie."
"Zhan Xiu, you are here. Are you busy with state affairs recently? You are about to get married soon, and you should let yourself rest. You can't be in a hurry with the affairs of this state, let alone neglect your queen because of it." Murong Feixue exhorted earnestly, only hoping that he could show a little joy.
Even if she wanted him to be ruthless, she didn't want him to be ruthless.
Besides, Yun Ni is really a good kid.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes were deep, and he just said lightly, "My son knows."
Seeing his reaction, Yun Ni felt a little uncomfortable.But on second thought, she was relieved again.She doesn't ask for a place in his heart, but only wants to be by his side.Maybe one day, when he looks back, he will see how good she is.That's enough, enough.
"It's sunny today, why don't you go to the imperial garden with Yun Ni to enjoy the flowers? Auntie is a little tired and wants to sleep for a while." Murong Feixue glanced at Fu Rong, who immediately stepped forward and pushed the wheelchair.Her actions made it clear that she wanted to create opportunities for the two of them, and wanted them to be alone.
Yun Ni didn't know what to do, so she could only look at Feng Zhanxiu.
"My son, leave." Feng Zhanxiu replied, and when he turned around, he said quietly, "Let's go." He walked out of Qianning Palace without looking back.
Murong Feixue smiled slightly at Yun Ni, Yun Ni supported her body, and followed Feng Zhanxiu away.
The two left Qianning Palace, Yun Ni looked at the slender figure in front of her, and realized that she didn't know what to say.I could face it calmly before, but now it is too difficult.After walking a few steps, she realized that he was walking in the opposite direction from the Royal Garden. She stopped, and immediately understood that he would not go with her to enjoy the flowers.
"Wang..." But he still couldn't help but shouted.
"Zongli, you accompany the queen to enjoy the flowers." Feng Zhanxiu said coldly, a few strides had already thrown her far away.
"Yes!" Zhongli stopped.
Looking at the back of Feng Zhanxiu's resolute departure, Yun Ni only felt lost and sad.She didn't come back to her senses for a long time, but she heard Zhongli's deep male voice ringing in her ears, "Queen, my subordinate will accompany you to the imperial garden."
After a long time, Yun Ni looked back and turned to look at him, "Zhongli, you don't need to call me that. Just call me Yun Ni."
The crowd naturally could distinguish between master and servant, bowed and said, "The queen has a noble status, and my subordinates must not exceed the rules."
"Don't you even want to draw a clear line with me?" Yun Ni stared at him, the partner who used to advance and retreat together, and sighed softly.Whether the queen is not the queen, in fact, she doesn't care at all.She just loves that man, for such a simple reason.But in this way, she also tasted the feeling of being extremely cold at a high place.
Once the identity changes, it seems that everything has changed.
After a long while, Zhong Li let go of his hand and said calmly, "This is the path you chose."
Yun Ni's eyes tightened suddenly, and her body trembled slightly.Yes, this is the path she chose.She should have expected this to happen.She frowned, and said softly, "I'm not going to the Imperial Garden anymore, you can go back."
"Your subordinates obey." Zhongli turned around and left.
Yun Ni stood alone in the same place, the breath of summer was so hot, but her heart was as cold as water.
Could it be that she made the wrong choice?
※※※
Time passed day by day, and ten days seemed to be just a blink of an eye.
Tomorrow is the day of the big wedding, and the palace is even more festive.
Yun Ni has already moved into the Canary Palace, and after tomorrow, she will be his queen, and from now on, he will be her god.
Yun Ni found herself a little insomnia, she sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror.Behind her, Murong Feixue was sitting in a wheelchair, combing her hair, muttering as she combed, "Auntie combs your hair, just like marrying a daughter. Once combed to the end, and secondly combed until the gray hair is even." Eyebrows, comb three times until the children and grandchildren are all over the ground."
"Thank you, aunt." Yun Ni thanked softly.
After Murong Feixue combed her hair, she hugged her again, "Good boy, I have wronged you."
"I'm not wronged." Yun Ni lowered her eyes and leaned towards her.
Outside the hall, the dawn moon is in the sky, and the stars are shining brightly.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Feng Zhanxiu drank wine alone, glass after glass.The wine glass was too small, so I simply grabbed the jug and drank it.He suddenly remembered the past.She looked drunk, she smiled in the dark, she said she decided to stay and decided not to go, she said she might be able to change him.
Feng Zhanxiu drank the last sip of wine, and closed his eyes heavily.
……
The next day, the king of war got married and the whole country celebrated together.
The people in the capital cheered and set off firecrackers.The bustling city, the long-lost celebration, and the shouts all over the sky.After two years of continuous fighting, finally ushered in a new prosperity.Perhaps, what the people care about is not who is the king, but who can bring them peace.
Outside the city, a carriage came galloping.
A pair of brothers were driving the carriage, and Mingzhu was sitting in the carriage.She was uneasy, wondering if she would make it in time.Feng Zhanxiu, Feng Zhanxiu, are you really willing to marry her?Have you forgotten me.
After the carriage entered the city, it had to stop.Because of the big wedding of the King of War, the capital was crowded with people, and it was impossible to move forward at all.
Chang Sheng and Jun Sheng drove the carriage aside and jumped off the carriage one after another.Changsheng opened the curtain, looked at Mingzhu, "Miss, we've arrived."
Mingzhu nodded, and Junsheng hurriedly helped her out of the carriage.
Mingzhu looked up at the majestic palace in the distance, but felt even more bewildered.
In the capital, she finally came back again.But how should she enter the palace now?
Deep in the palace courtyard, a wall blocked them.
The guards around the palace are so strict that it is impossible to get close at all.
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng accompanied Mingzhu and went around the palace, but there was no way to sneak in.Mingzhu raised her head and looked at the imperial palace, which was close at hand but far away in the sky, and suddenly felt flustered.
She bit her lip and turned to look at the two brothers.
"Changsheng, Junsheng, thank you for escorting me all the way. I will go the rest of the way by myself." Mingzhu said softly, feeling even more grateful in her heart.Don't know what will happen next, she can't implicate the two brothers.So she made a decisive decision and decided to part ways here.
Chang Sheng was a little worried, and said in a deep voice, "Miss, can you do it alone?"
"That's right, it's better for us brothers to accompany you." Jun Sheng heard his brother say this, and quickly echoed.
Mingzhu shook her head, and said carefully, "No, you can't follow me."
Seeing that she was so determined, the two brothers couldn't say anything more.During this short time of getting along, the two brothers have long regarded her as a younger sister.Now we have to separate, but I don't want to give up.Chang Sheng babbled, "We are still in Liu Shi Village, if there is any trouble, just come to us."
"I will." Mingzhu smiled knowingly and agreed.
The two brothers said nothing more, and turned around.
The two tall and thick figures merged into the crowd at once and gradually disappeared.Mingzhu withdrew her gaze and turned to look at the palace gate not far away.There is no way to go in quietly, so now I have to go in openly.Her identity should be enough for people to repay him.
At least, let's see each other first.
Thinking about it, Mingzhu clenched her fists and walked towards the palace gate.
"Bold! Stop!" Sure enough, as soon as he got closer, he was stopped by the guards.
The guards stepped forward to stand in front of her, looking at her suspiciously in case she was a spy or a traitor.
Mingzhu was not afraid, she was just about to speak, but someone suddenly flashed in front of her.A pair of white clothes came into view, and the familiar figure made her blurt out the other person's name, "Gongsun Qingming?"
Gongsun Qingming glanced sideways at her, his eyes were full of curiosity and confusion, mixed with a hint of surprise.He looked at the guard calmly, shaking his jade fan slowly, he was still the suave and suave young master Pian Pian.He opened his mouth lazily, and said leisurely, "This is my little maid, everyone is disturbed."
As he spoke, he took a token out of his sleeve.
The chief guard recognized the token, and seeing the token as if he saw the King of War, he hurriedly shouted, "Long live the King of War! Please!"
Gongsun Qingming put the token back into his sleeve, turned his head to glance at Mingzhu, and said softly, "If you walk around again, I will punish you. Be careful and follow, today is the wedding of the King of War."
"Yes!" Mingzhu knew that he was helping her, so she quickly replied.
The guards gave way, Gongsun Qingming walked slowly into the palace, Mingzhu followed behind with her head bowed.When he got away from the guards, Gongsun Qingming suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, dragging her into an empty alley.Unexpectedly, Mingzhu was flustered, and before she could calm down, she heard his questioning.
"Mingzhu? Why aren't you dead? What's going on?" Gongsun Qingming stopped joking with his male voice and asked deeply.
Mingzhu didn't know how to tell so many strange things for a while, and her thoughts were confused for a while.
In the end, I had no choice but to say, "It's a long story."
"He is going to get married, what are you going to do now?" Gongsun Qingming reminded, holding her hand tightly.
"I..." Mingzhu faltered, then said quietly, "I don't want him to get married."
Gongsun Qingming stared at her for a while, her phoenix eyes shone with a gleam of regret, but also emotion.He finally let go of his hand, glanced away, not looking at her, and asked lightly, "You are in love with him."
This is clearly a question, but it uses a positive tone.
Pearl did not deny it.
"Even if he destroys your country, even if he kills your elder brother Xiaotian?" Gongsun Qingming said quietly, turning his head to look at her again, "Even if he lied to you, even if he killed Emperor Hong. You still love him ."
Mingzhu was startled, and looked at him suspiciously, "Father?"
"Yes, your father. If even your father was killed by him, would you still love him?" Gongsun Qingming narrowed his eyes and asked.
Mingzhu panicked, "Impossible! This is impossible!"
"Is it impossible, or do you not believe it?" Gongsun Qingming pointed out sharply, and then said, "You can ask him if he killed it."
"It's not him!" she roared, shaking her head.
Gongsun Qingming's eyes were bright, and he said calmly, "He's in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, you should ask him now."
"I don't believe it!" Mingzhu took a few steps back in disbelief, then turned around abruptly, and ran out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.If Hongdi was killed by him, then why did he say no at the time, and why did he tell her that he wanted to take her back to Zhanwangfu.
Didn't you say you were going to leave?
Feng Zhanxiu, what exactly do you want?I don't believe it, I don't believe it, please tell me you didn't do that.
Gongsun Qingming looked at her figure running fast, lowered her head and sighed.Only then did he start to walk towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony slowly.She didn't die, so she didn't die, he was so happy.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all the ministers gathered together.On the side chair, Murong Feixue, who is the royal aunt, sat on the phoenix chair.
"The king of war has arrived—the empress has arrived—" the eunuch outside the hall shouted, and two figures flashed in everyone's eyes.
Yunni is wearing a phoenix crown, and the phoenix crown on the top of her head marks the identity of the queen.She led one end of the red hydrangea, Yingying walked into the hall.On the other side of the hydrangea, Feng Zhanxiu was still dressed in black silk.Only the girdle around the waist is only scarlet, which looks a little happy.He has no expression on his face, and his evil and charming appearance is indifferent.
All the ministers did not dare to have any objections, they only said, "Long live my king, and a thousand years old empress. Congratulations to my king, congratulations to my empress."
Amidst the sound of worship from the crowd, the two walked towards Murong Feixue.
At this time, another thin figure flashed outside the hall, but was stopped by the guards, and she shouted loudly, "Feng Zhanxiu!"
The sudden female voice made the atmosphere change suddenly, and everyone turned their heads suspiciously to look at the person coming.I saw the figure stopped by the guards outside the hall.She has long black hair draped over her shoulders, and her temples are slightly loose, and she is only tied up with a simple hairpin.The white silk dress made her look weaker and slimmer.
She has a thin oval face with deep shadows under her eyelids.His face was pale and looked a little sick.But her cheeks were flushed, and she could feel that she was suffering from a low fever.
Only those two pairs of eyes were dark and bright, shining brightly, like colored glaze.
Isn't she, she, Princess Pearl?
(End of this chapter)
This is the end of one catastrophe, but it is the beginning of another catastrophe.Because the King of War declared that he would conquer the remaining eight countries and unify the nine continents.His steadfast oath shocked the people of the Nine Kingdoms Continent.It seems that a storm is about to hit the entire continent, and a massacre is about to be staged.
On September [-]th, in the middle of the first month, Daxing changed hands, and the king of war proclaimed himself king in Daicheng, and Daxing was renamed "Shengxin".
After three days and three nights of red rain, the sun just showed its face.On a sunny afternoon, the villagers of Liushi Village were hoeing the withered crops on the cultivated land.Everyone started talking while whispering.As we chatted about the topic, we naturally talked about the affairs of the country, and even the current king.
"Hey, the King of War is too violent. How should I live this day." The farmer wiped his sweat and said in a deep voice.
Another farmer beside him immediately echoed, "Yes, the King of War also broke down the last city of Daxing. I heard that Emperor Xiao was killed by the King of War himself."
"What about the empress?" the round-faced peasant woman asked suspiciously.
"Queen Liu? I'm afraid it's bad luck!" The farmer was smoking a big pipe, blowing out smoke rings.
The round-faced peasant woman nodded in agreement, shook her head and said, "Didn't the empress give birth to a little prince? I don't know what happened to them. This world is too chaotic. Let it go, let it go, we little people can't do it either. I still think about what to do next. I’d better do some manual work and go to the city to sell some money.”
Everyone looked at the crops with no harvest, and they were suddenly bored.
After a while, there was another silent sigh.
In the distance, the thin man Changsheng just came back from the city.He carried some medicines and a live fish in his hand.Chang Sheng lowered his head and ran back to the small tile-roofed house of the two brothers, pushed the door open and entered.He closed the door behind his back, turned around and said roughly, "Second Brother, I'm back. You go to cook the medicine, and I'll cook the fish."
Younger brother Jun Sheng immediately ran out from another room and took the medicine in his hand.
On the stone bed in the middle, Mingzhu fell into a coma again due to lack of energy and blood.Dr. Wang had seen it before, and he couldn't believe it.A person without a heartbeat is still alive.This is really strange.Doctor Wang instructed the two brothers a few more words before leaving.
No, Changsheng went to buy medicine and fish.
After a while, the medicine was cooked.Live fish are also boiled into delicious fish soup.
The two brothers, one carrying medicine and the other carrying soup, rushed into the room one after the other.
Mingzhu has already woken up, but her body is too weak to move.After finally drinking the medicine and some soup, I felt warmer.She still didn't have much strength in her limbs, so she could only look at the two of them helplessly, and said with difficulty, "I want to see the King of War."
King of War?She wants to see the king?
"Girl, who are you?" The two brothers looked at her cautiously and asked.They found her in the imperial tomb. She slept in the mausoleum of the imperial tomb. Could it be that she is some concubine?Or which princess?Only women with such status can sleep in the imperial tomb after death.
However, she didn't die.This is also strange.
Mingzhu didn't know why she was here, nor did she know the current situation outside, she felt a little disturbed.In order to clear her mind, she asked back, "Who are you?"
"We..." the two brothers said, glancing at each other, "elder brother lives forever, younger brother lives forever."
It turned out to be two brothers!
Mingzhu nodded and asked again, "Then why am I here? Where did you find me?" After all, she hasn't found her body after searching for a long time, right?There are still too many questions, like a knotted mess, waiting for her to figure it out.
"Why should we answer you, you should answer us first! Who are you?" Younger brother Jun Sheng's eyes widened.
Mingzhu raised the corners of her lips and smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, no matter what, I should thank you for saving me. Without you, I can't survive. Thank you."
Seeing her smiling, the two brothers touched their heads in embarrassment.
"My name is Mingzhu, Ye Mingzhu." She said her name with a smile.
When Changsheng and Junsheng heard her name, they thought that they found her in the imperial tomb, and immediately thought of Hongdi's daughter, Princess Mingzhu of Daxing.But, isn't Princess Pearl already dead?And he died two years ago!No, is it back to life?
"You are Princess Pearl? Aren't you dead? You are not a ghost, are you?" Chang Sheng swallowed.
Seeing that they were frightened, Mingzhu quickly explained, "No, I'm not a ghost, I'm a human. There's a reason for this, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. But I hope you can tell me where you found me. Also, where is the King of War now?"
"We two brothers make a living by robbing tombs. We found you in the imperial mausoleum that night. As for the King of War, he has captured Daicheng, killed Emperor Xiao, and became king in Daicheng." Jun Sheng said frankly , and hastily added, "Your Highness, we did not steal anything from the imperial mausoleum!"
What?He killed Dong Xiaotian?
Mingzhu felt dizzy for a while and couldn't breathe.She was still one step too late, still one step too late.She tightened the quilt and said softly, "Can you take me to him? I must see him!"
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, we are just ordinary people, how could we meet the King of War!" Chang Sheng said in a difficult way.
"Then can you send me to Daicheng? Can you send me there?" Mingzhu begged.
The two brothers were taken aback for a moment, feeling that one head was two older.They seem to have found themselves in a big trouble!
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng couldn't resist her pleading, so they nodded in agreement in a daze.As soon as they agreed, they were immediately annoyed.He wanted to repent, but seeing Mingzhu smiling wildly, he couldn't bear to speak, so he swallowed all the words of repentance.Hey, some people are just so scary, they have met their nemesis.
That night, the three of them went to bed early.
The next day, before dawn, Chang Sheng opened the door, and Jun Sheng walked out of the house with Pearl on his back.Changsheng secretly led the ox cart of a family in the village, and put down a piece of silver.Jun Sheng put the pearl in the haystack, and he ran to the front of the ox cart, driving with his elder brother Chang Sheng.
The bullock cart slowly ran towards Daicheng.
Mingzhu closed her eyes, but his image was all in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of it.
You finally got your revenge.After killing Dong Xiaotian, he finally had his revenge.are you happyYou finally got everything you wanted.What about me, do you remember me?Maybe, maybe you have already forgotten me.But I still have no hesitation and run towards you.
Please tell me if you loved me.
※※※
Daicheng, the state official residence.
Since the red rain, the hot weather has eased a lot.The sky is cloudless, a scene of prosperity and peace.A white pigeon flew from a distance, it flew into the mansion, and landed on the window of a wing.A small piece of paper was tied around the white pigeon's ankle, apparently to convey a message.
Zhongli approached the window and untied the note from the white dove's feet.Let the white dove fly, open the note and have a look.
There was a line of delicate handwriting on the note - Miss has arrived, please return quickly.
Zhong Li turned back to Feng Zhanxiu again, and said in a deep voice, "Wang, Yun Ni Feige sent the letter, Miss has arrived in the capital, please come back quickly."
Feng Zhanxiu didn't wear a bright yellow dragon robe, but wore a black Chinese dress in his own way.He has always loved purple, but this time he wore black for many days, probably to mourn for someone.Under the handsome sword eyebrows, a pair of long and narrow eyes were tightly closed.He was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, and his whole body was frighteningly quiet.
After hearing Zhongli's reply, he did not respond for a long time.
After a long while, I finally uttered two words, "Let's go."
"The Liu family father and daughter..." Zhongli asked again, waiting for his order.
"Take it." Feng Zhanxiu said coldly, without the slightest warmth.
Zhongli accepted the order with his fists clasped, "Yes!" He hurriedly turned around and ran out of the study.
In the mansion, the twelve cavalry had been idle for several days.Since this last battle was also fought, they felt that there was nothing to do.But the eldest sister, January, told them that this was not the last battle.Because the king wants to continue to attack the other eight countries and completely unify the mainland before he can give up.
Therefore, they still have a lot of tasks to do.
They don't know how long they can live and how long they can be with the king.But the only thing they can do is to stick to their positions until the last moment, until the moment they fall down.I don't think about the rest of the things, I don't have time to think about it, and I don't allow myself to have this extravagant hope.
An ordinary life is a luxury.
In the courtyard, the girls practiced their fists and feet in twos and threes, in order to meet the battle that will soon follow.
"Go back to the city immediately and take the Liu family father and daughter!" Zhongli walked into the courtyard and gave instructions to the twelve cavalrymen.
"Got it!" January nodded.
After the crowd left, the twelve cavalrymen thought of Liu Shuiyao and couldn't help sighing.
Liu Qing and Liu Shuiyao are now locked in the same room, which is equivalent to imprisonment.Since that day, Liu Shuiyao was probably overly sad, so she kept crying, crying all the time.When the tears run dry, blood flows out.It was too late when the imperial physician came to treat her, and she had already lost her eyes from crying.
Such a turn of events makes people tremble endlessly.
What kind of pain is that that makes people cry until their eyes are blind.
Liu Shuiyao became very silent, not saying a word.She can even be said to have become dazed, maybe she has gone crazy.When alone, she would curl up in a corner, muttering to herself.When the person approached, she remained silent again, embracing herself in panic.
She is so pitiful.
Eldest sister Yiyue glanced back and said softly, "Third sister, fourth sister, you two take care of the Liu family's father and daughter."
"Yes! Sister!" The two replied in unison.In the next second, the girls acted in turn, and they wanted to rush back to the capital.In the capital city, the miss may have been escorted safely by Liu Yi and Fu Rong.The master has finally ascended the throne as the king, which can be regarded as living up to expectations.The king of war, this should be God's will.Due to the haste, the army regrouped and set off late.
But after a while, the carriages and horses outside the mansion were all ready.
Feng Zhan Xiufei got on his horse, gave a drink, and galloped away.
Everyone immediately followed, and the dust flew up.
※※※
ten days later
At the end of the flat road, a bullock cart approached slowly.
The weather was sweltering and hot.
Changsheng kept on driving, Junsheng turned his head to look behind him from time to time, and saw Mingzhu lying on the haystack, her little face was flushed from the sun, but her lips were dry and white.The body has not recovered in the first place, and the fatigue of the journey is added, so how can it be comfortable?Jun Sheng had no choice but to take out a piece of clothing from the bundle, and put it on her body carefully.
Simply put the clothes over her head to prevent the sun from burning her.
A group of people rushed forward suddenly, and the horses and carriages galloped past them, and the oncoming dust made people cough uncontrollably.All I saw was that the man in the lead was as handsome as a monster or a fairy, but he was so cold that people were afraid.Changsheng and Junsheng couldn't help shivering, feeling sorry for each other.
Then, a group of people staggered past them like this.
The two brothers spit on the ground, Jun Sheng wiped the dust off his face, and couldn't help nagging, "What a bad luck. Look, look, what the hell."
"Okay, stop talking." Chang Sheng muttered.
Mingzhu finally wakes up faintly after hearing their conversation.The navy blue clothes blocked her view, and she slowly reached out and grabbed the clothes.At the end of the avenue, the group happened to turn the corner and disappeared.When I opened my eyes, I saw billowing dust.
At the end of September, the capital.
"The King of War returns to the city—" With a roar, the city gate opened wide.
"Long live my king, long live my king - long live my king, long live my king -"
The people along the road knelt down, bowed their heads and shouted.
In the midst of the shouts that resounded through the sky, and in the support of the worshiping crowd, Feng Zhanxiu rode his horse and galloped into the city, his eyes fixed on the front, unmoved by anything or anyone.Then Zhongli and the twelve cavalry followed.In March and April, the two took turns driving the carriage, and the carriage ran slowly.
A group of people galloped through the streets of the capital city and headed straight for the palace.
As soon as I ran into the palace, I saw Yun Ni waiting at the Wuzhong Gate.
Feng Zhanxiu pulled up the reins and said "Yu——".He flew off the horse, but he didn't give a single shot out of the corner of his eye.
"Wang, Miss is in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Yun Ni lowered her head respectfully and said softly.
Feng Zhanxiu responded silently, walked past her quietly, and hurried towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.His figure flashed past her, Yun Ni clenched her fists, suddenly felt sour, but could only hold her breath and swallow it all.She silently followed behind him, and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation together with the rest.
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Murong Feixue was sitting in a wheelchair, looking out of the hall without blinking.She is waiting for his return, just like she was waiting for her king back then.Time flies, and decades have passed in the blink of an eye. Her face has aged, her temples have turned gray, and she finally waited for this day.
Once made a blood oath, he must avenge him, and he must let Zhanxiu take back everything.
Now, the first step has been successful.
When Murong Feixue was in a trance, a tall figure suddenly flashed in front of him.She didn't have time to come back to her senses, and vaguely saw him as the face in her memory.With tears in her eyes, she whispered, "Welcome my king back to the palace."
"Aunt." Feng Zhanxiu went up to meet her, "There is no need to do this."
"Miss is well!" Behind him, a group of people kowtowed and shouted.
Murong Feixue shook her head, looked at Feng Zhanxiu and said resolutely, "Now you are the king, even though I am your aunt, I have to be like this." She smiled at everyone again, and said slowly, "Get up quickly, Stop kneeling, you have all worked hard. Yun Ni, take them down to rest."
"Yes!"
"Subordinates retire!"
Yun Ni retreated with a group of people.
Immediately, only Feng Zhanxiu and Murong Feixue were left in the hall.
Murong Feixue glanced at him with her phoenix eyes, but seeing that he was dressed in black, she exhorted with concern, "Emperors have been wearing yellow dragon robes since ancient times, and you should change into them too."
"I don't like it." Feng Zhanxiu said lightly.
"Ok, ok, aunt won't force you." Murong Feixue had already heard about the breaking of the columbarium by Dong Xiaotian, and she didn't want to argue with him on these trivial matters.Just thinking of the Liu family's father and daughter, the female voice sank a bit, "What about Liu Qing and Liu Shuiyao? How do you plan to deal with them?"
Feng Zhanxiu had no expression on his face, "It's all up to my aunt."
"Okay, then kill them." Murong Feixue said calmly.
"Except for Liu Shuiyao." He added calmly, his eagle eyes were deep.
Murong Feixue looked at him suspiciously, took his hand, and clenched it slightly, "Zhanxiu, don't leave any remnants behind. It's like a weed, afraid it will grow again when the spring wind blows..."
"That child can't be killed either." Feng Zhanxiu interrupted without waiting for her to finish speaking.
"You..." Murong Feixue was impatient, unexpectedly he would refute her.She took a deep breath and held her temper patiently. She only treated him as a child throwing a temper tantrum.She patted his hand and promised, "Okay, aunt, I promise you everything, if Liu Shuiyao won't kill, neither will that child."
Feng Zhanxiu just nodded his forehead and stopped talking.
"Then you won't go back on your promise to aunt, will you? If you go back on it, then aunt will go back on it too." What Murong Feixue was referring to was naturally marrying Yun Ni.
Yun Ni is the candidate she has chosen thousands of times, and it is the candidate she is most assured of.Since ancient times, emperors must not be affectionate or emotional.If you are sentient, you will only put yourself in a difficult situation.Wasn't that the case with the former king?She will not let Zhan Xiu make the same mistakes again, because she knows that he has no love for Yun Ni, so he is the best candidate.
"It's all up to my aunt." Feng Zhanxiu repeated that sentence again.
Murong Feixue stared at him, only to realize that his eyes were icy cold.She suddenly felt distressed, and stretched out her hand to caress his face, stroked his hair, feeling sorry for his gray hair all night.But in the end, he still hardened his heart and said softly, "Auntie did this for you. Do you understand?"
"Zhanxiu knows." His voice was dull without any ups and downs.
※※※
It was night, and the palace was silent.The battle ended temporarily, and finally ushered in a short period of peace.After two years of war, it takes some time to recuperate.All the eunuchs and maids in the palace have been changed. Of course, there is only one end for them, and that is death.No one was spared except the father-in-law.
The father-in-law and the former princess were locked in the deep palace, and could no longer take a step.
That night, Liu Qing was thrown into a sky prison and given a glass of poisoned wine.
Feng Zhanxiu no longer went to Pingle Palace, he directly ordered people to seal the palace and no one was allowed to enter.Violators - kill.And the king of his country will naturally live in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.It was already midnight at this time, and the guards outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation were guarding heavily.The dark bedroom was not lit.
The moonlight shone faintly, covering his whole body, outlining his lonely figure.
He sat alone in the chair without making a sound.
It's just that he still holds the luminous pearl in his hand, holding it tightly.
A cold orb has no temperature.Just like his heart, there has been no temperature since then.
He suddenly raised the corners of his lips, as if thinking of something.She moved her lips and hummed something.I can vaguely hear it, it is a beautiful ballad, "There is a beautiful woman, I will never forget it when I see it, I will not see her for a day, and I will think about it like crazy... Don't let me fly, make me fall, make me fall..."
Anyway, it doesn't matter who you marry anyway.
It doesn't matter who you marry.
At noon the next day, the King of War announced to the whole country that he would marry Yun Ni as the empress ten days later, the whole country would celebrate together, and the tax would be exempted for one year.
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng finally arrived in Daicheng in an ox cart, but what they learned next was also shocking.Mingzhu asked the two of them to inquire, but who knew that King Zhan left Daicheng a few days ago and rushed to the capital.When Mingzhu knew this fact, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Lying on the bed in the wing room of the inn, she murmured, "Could it be fate."
They seem to keep missing, she keeps following him, and keeps failing to stay with him.What should she do to stand in front of him.It's just that I want to appear in front of him dignifiedly in my own appearance, why is it so difficult.In this world, how can there be such a difficult thing.
Mingzhu felt sad in her heart, and her expression was even more anxious.
Sitting on the chair, Chang Sheng couldn't bear to see her sad expression.Although he didn't know what happened, he still said with concern, "I'm a rough man in Changsheng, so I can't say anything consoling. Anyway, that's all. Let's go back to the capital, can't we?"
When Mingzhu heard this, her dazed gaze became more focused.
Suddenly there was a burst of firecrackers outside the inn, mixed with cheers and cheers.
The three looked around in confusion, and Jun Sheng hurried out of the wing to find out.After a while, he found out the news and rushed back.Jun Sheng seemed a little flustered. He rushed into the wing and closed the door behind his back, "Brother, Your Royal Highness, the notice posted on the imperial list said..."
He faltered, glanced cautiously at Mingzhu, feeling extremely troubled.
Mingzhu grasped the quilt intuitively, and asked softly, "What did the notice say?"
"Don't scribble, tell me quickly!" Chang Sheng couldn't wait any longer, and shouted in a deep voice.
Jun Sheng stomped his feet, and had no choice but to say what was written on the notice, "The King of War is about to accept his empress!"
boom -
Mingzhu felt dizzy for a while, felt itchy for a moment, and had difficulty breathing.He, he, he is going to accept the empress?Who is he going to marry?She stared at Jun Sheng, trying to calm down her mood, but her voice trembled, "Who does he want as queen?"
"Yun Ni!" Jun Sheng thought for a while, then blurted out.
Mingzhu's eyes were in a daze, and she said stupidly, "So it's Yun Ni. So it's her."
He wants to marry her as his queen, hehe, he wants to marry Yun Ni as his queen.Risking her soul being scattered, she insisted on staying in the middle of the two time and space. She became a beautiful boy and a court lady, and she just wanted to be with him.Originally, she thought it would be fine to accompany him, but now that she heard that he was going to marry another woman, she felt such pain in her heart.
Mingzhu just raised the corners of her lips, smiling a little vainly.
Maybe from the very beginning, from the first sight, she fell in love with him.It's just that her self-righteousness and his self-righteousness have made all kinds of misses between them.She is just an experiment without father or mother. She never believed in love, and she was even more afraid that she would be hurt because of love.
At this moment, she suddenly realized, Feng Zhanxiu, I love you more than I imagined.
Mingzhu bit her lip and said with a smile, "Don't call me Your Highness the Princess anymore. Also, I'm going to trouble you again. Send me back to the capital immediately, okay?"
Changsheng and Junsheng looked at her helplessly, feeling that this trouble was not a little big.
Don't call her Your Highness Princess?What is that called?
"Miss!" The two brothers thought for a while and shouted in unison.
Immediately, the three of Mingzhu rushed from Daicheng to the capital again.This time the journey can be said to be a blunder, which no one expected.The ox cart has also been replaced with a carriage, in order to speed up the process.Inside the carriage, Mingzhu developed a low fever.She closed her eyes, the sadness was beyond words.
※※※
Royal Palace in the capital city
Murong Feixue stayed with Yun Ni all day long, arranging the marriage matters.Yun Ni was a little embarrassed, and smiled even more shyly.The two chatted without saying a word.Yun Ni called out "Miss" out of habit, and Murong Feixue immediately patted her hand and warned, "I have to change my words from now on, come on, call me aunt."
Yun Ni hesitated, then Rourou called out, "Auntie."
"Hey, dear." Murong Feixue nodded in satisfaction, reaching out to stroke her hair, "Yun Ni, you are a good boy. The first time my aunt saw you, she liked you from the bottom of her heart."
At that time, Yun Ni was still very young, and the helpless little girl had no choice but to sell herself to bury her father.The crowd surrounded her, and they kept looking at her with pity.Such a small child just lowered his head, timidly not knowing what to do.She and Zhan Xiu walked into the crowd, and Zhan Xiu suddenly threw the money bag at her, giving her enough money to bury her father.
And that money is all their remaining property.
The little girl raised her head, and she finally saw the other person's face.Very delicate, with gratitude, fear, and loyalty in those eyes.From that moment on, she fell in love with Yun Ni.Or, maybe, she fell in love with the loyalty in Yun Ni's eyes.She knew that she had finally found a reliable confidant for Zhan Xiu.
Afterwards, he saved Zhongli again, and became even more powerful.
It's a pity that she fell ill later and couldn't afford it.Zhan Xiu walked the rest of the way alone.By his side, there are Yunni, Zhongli, Twelve Cavalrymen, Fu Rong and Liu Yi.
After Yun Ni told her, she recalled the past, held her hand gratefully, and said softly, "Auntie, Yun Ni will never forget you, let alone Wang."
"In a few days, you will become the queen, and you will even assist the king." Murong Feixue said with relief.
When Yun Ni thought of marrying him and becoming his wife, her heart throbbed and she nodded silently.She secretly loved him for many years, and only buried this love deeply in her heart.I used to think that it would be impossible, but now, the dream is about to come true.She was afraid that this was just a dream, so she dared not fall asleep every night.
I'm afraid that when I wake up, it's all empty.
"If you stop his thoughts, he will give up." Murong Feixue said suddenly, with deep eyes, "If you listen to my aunt, you won't make mistakes."
Yun Ni was startled for a moment, and stopped responding.
I didn't know what was going on, but I was suddenly worried.It seems that something bad is about to happen.
"Long live my king!" Outside Qianning Palace, the little eunuch replied softly.
Murong Feixue and Yun Ni immediately looked up, only to see Feng Zhanxiu, still in black, walking into the hall with a calm and handsome face.He didn't look happy at all, as if he wasn't the one who was going to get married.Or maybe, he never took this wedding seriously.
From beginning to end, he was an outsider.
Feng Zhanxiu walked up to Murong Feixue, and called out heavily, "Auntie."
"Zhan Xiu, you are here. Are you busy with state affairs recently? You are about to get married soon, and you should let yourself rest. You can't be in a hurry with the affairs of this state, let alone neglect your queen because of it." Murong Feixue exhorted earnestly, only hoping that he could show a little joy.
Even if she wanted him to be ruthless, she didn't want him to be ruthless.
Besides, Yun Ni is really a good kid.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes were deep, and he just said lightly, "My son knows."
Seeing his reaction, Yun Ni felt a little uncomfortable.But on second thought, she was relieved again.She doesn't ask for a place in his heart, but only wants to be by his side.Maybe one day, when he looks back, he will see how good she is.That's enough, enough.
"It's sunny today, why don't you go to the imperial garden with Yun Ni to enjoy the flowers? Auntie is a little tired and wants to sleep for a while." Murong Feixue glanced at Fu Rong, who immediately stepped forward and pushed the wheelchair.Her actions made it clear that she wanted to create opportunities for the two of them, and wanted them to be alone.
Yun Ni didn't know what to do, so she could only look at Feng Zhanxiu.
"My son, leave." Feng Zhanxiu replied, and when he turned around, he said quietly, "Let's go." He walked out of Qianning Palace without looking back.
Murong Feixue smiled slightly at Yun Ni, Yun Ni supported her body, and followed Feng Zhanxiu away.
The two left Qianning Palace, Yun Ni looked at the slender figure in front of her, and realized that she didn't know what to say.I could face it calmly before, but now it is too difficult.After walking a few steps, she realized that he was walking in the opposite direction from the Royal Garden. She stopped, and immediately understood that he would not go with her to enjoy the flowers.
"Wang..." But he still couldn't help but shouted.
"Zongli, you accompany the queen to enjoy the flowers." Feng Zhanxiu said coldly, a few strides had already thrown her far away.
"Yes!" Zhongli stopped.
Looking at the back of Feng Zhanxiu's resolute departure, Yun Ni only felt lost and sad.She didn't come back to her senses for a long time, but she heard Zhongli's deep male voice ringing in her ears, "Queen, my subordinate will accompany you to the imperial garden."
After a long time, Yun Ni looked back and turned to look at him, "Zhongli, you don't need to call me that. Just call me Yun Ni."
The crowd naturally could distinguish between master and servant, bowed and said, "The queen has a noble status, and my subordinates must not exceed the rules."
"Don't you even want to draw a clear line with me?" Yun Ni stared at him, the partner who used to advance and retreat together, and sighed softly.Whether the queen is not the queen, in fact, she doesn't care at all.She just loves that man, for such a simple reason.But in this way, she also tasted the feeling of being extremely cold at a high place.
Once the identity changes, it seems that everything has changed.
After a long while, Zhong Li let go of his hand and said calmly, "This is the path you chose."
Yun Ni's eyes tightened suddenly, and her body trembled slightly.Yes, this is the path she chose.She should have expected this to happen.She frowned, and said softly, "I'm not going to the Imperial Garden anymore, you can go back."
"Your subordinates obey." Zhongli turned around and left.
Yun Ni stood alone in the same place, the breath of summer was so hot, but her heart was as cold as water.
Could it be that she made the wrong choice?
※※※
Time passed day by day, and ten days seemed to be just a blink of an eye.
Tomorrow is the day of the big wedding, and the palace is even more festive.
Yun Ni has already moved into the Canary Palace, and after tomorrow, she will be his queen, and from now on, he will be her god.
Yun Ni found herself a little insomnia, she sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror.Behind her, Murong Feixue was sitting in a wheelchair, combing her hair, muttering as she combed, "Auntie combs your hair, just like marrying a daughter. Once combed to the end, and secondly combed until the gray hair is even." Eyebrows, comb three times until the children and grandchildren are all over the ground."
"Thank you, aunt." Yun Ni thanked softly.
After Murong Feixue combed her hair, she hugged her again, "Good boy, I have wronged you."
"I'm not wronged." Yun Ni lowered her eyes and leaned towards her.
Outside the hall, the dawn moon is in the sky, and the stars are shining brightly.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Feng Zhanxiu drank wine alone, glass after glass.The wine glass was too small, so I simply grabbed the jug and drank it.He suddenly remembered the past.She looked drunk, she smiled in the dark, she said she decided to stay and decided not to go, she said she might be able to change him.
Feng Zhanxiu drank the last sip of wine, and closed his eyes heavily.
……
The next day, the king of war got married and the whole country celebrated together.
The people in the capital cheered and set off firecrackers.The bustling city, the long-lost celebration, and the shouts all over the sky.After two years of continuous fighting, finally ushered in a new prosperity.Perhaps, what the people care about is not who is the king, but who can bring them peace.
Outside the city, a carriage came galloping.
A pair of brothers were driving the carriage, and Mingzhu was sitting in the carriage.She was uneasy, wondering if she would make it in time.Feng Zhanxiu, Feng Zhanxiu, are you really willing to marry her?Have you forgotten me.
After the carriage entered the city, it had to stop.Because of the big wedding of the King of War, the capital was crowded with people, and it was impossible to move forward at all.
Chang Sheng and Jun Sheng drove the carriage aside and jumped off the carriage one after another.Changsheng opened the curtain, looked at Mingzhu, "Miss, we've arrived."
Mingzhu nodded, and Junsheng hurriedly helped her out of the carriage.
Mingzhu looked up at the majestic palace in the distance, but felt even more bewildered.
In the capital, she finally came back again.But how should she enter the palace now?
Deep in the palace courtyard, a wall blocked them.
The guards around the palace are so strict that it is impossible to get close at all.
The two brothers Changsheng and Junsheng accompanied Mingzhu and went around the palace, but there was no way to sneak in.Mingzhu raised her head and looked at the imperial palace, which was close at hand but far away in the sky, and suddenly felt flustered.
She bit her lip and turned to look at the two brothers.
"Changsheng, Junsheng, thank you for escorting me all the way. I will go the rest of the way by myself." Mingzhu said softly, feeling even more grateful in her heart.Don't know what will happen next, she can't implicate the two brothers.So she made a decisive decision and decided to part ways here.
Chang Sheng was a little worried, and said in a deep voice, "Miss, can you do it alone?"
"That's right, it's better for us brothers to accompany you." Jun Sheng heard his brother say this, and quickly echoed.
Mingzhu shook her head, and said carefully, "No, you can't follow me."
Seeing that she was so determined, the two brothers couldn't say anything more.During this short time of getting along, the two brothers have long regarded her as a younger sister.Now we have to separate, but I don't want to give up.Chang Sheng babbled, "We are still in Liu Shi Village, if there is any trouble, just come to us."
"I will." Mingzhu smiled knowingly and agreed.
The two brothers said nothing more, and turned around.
The two tall and thick figures merged into the crowd at once and gradually disappeared.Mingzhu withdrew her gaze and turned to look at the palace gate not far away.There is no way to go in quietly, so now I have to go in openly.Her identity should be enough for people to repay him.
At least, let's see each other first.
Thinking about it, Mingzhu clenched her fists and walked towards the palace gate.
"Bold! Stop!" Sure enough, as soon as he got closer, he was stopped by the guards.
The guards stepped forward to stand in front of her, looking at her suspiciously in case she was a spy or a traitor.
Mingzhu was not afraid, she was just about to speak, but someone suddenly flashed in front of her.A pair of white clothes came into view, and the familiar figure made her blurt out the other person's name, "Gongsun Qingming?"
Gongsun Qingming glanced sideways at her, his eyes were full of curiosity and confusion, mixed with a hint of surprise.He looked at the guard calmly, shaking his jade fan slowly, he was still the suave and suave young master Pian Pian.He opened his mouth lazily, and said leisurely, "This is my little maid, everyone is disturbed."
As he spoke, he took a token out of his sleeve.
The chief guard recognized the token, and seeing the token as if he saw the King of War, he hurriedly shouted, "Long live the King of War! Please!"
Gongsun Qingming put the token back into his sleeve, turned his head to glance at Mingzhu, and said softly, "If you walk around again, I will punish you. Be careful and follow, today is the wedding of the King of War."
"Yes!" Mingzhu knew that he was helping her, so she quickly replied.
The guards gave way, Gongsun Qingming walked slowly into the palace, Mingzhu followed behind with her head bowed.When he got away from the guards, Gongsun Qingming suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, dragging her into an empty alley.Unexpectedly, Mingzhu was flustered, and before she could calm down, she heard his questioning.
"Mingzhu? Why aren't you dead? What's going on?" Gongsun Qingming stopped joking with his male voice and asked deeply.
Mingzhu didn't know how to tell so many strange things for a while, and her thoughts were confused for a while.
In the end, I had no choice but to say, "It's a long story."
"He is going to get married, what are you going to do now?" Gongsun Qingming reminded, holding her hand tightly.
"I..." Mingzhu faltered, then said quietly, "I don't want him to get married."
Gongsun Qingming stared at her for a while, her phoenix eyes shone with a gleam of regret, but also emotion.He finally let go of his hand, glanced away, not looking at her, and asked lightly, "You are in love with him."
This is clearly a question, but it uses a positive tone.
Pearl did not deny it.
"Even if he destroys your country, even if he kills your elder brother Xiaotian?" Gongsun Qingming said quietly, turning his head to look at her again, "Even if he lied to you, even if he killed Emperor Hong. You still love him ."
Mingzhu was startled, and looked at him suspiciously, "Father?"
"Yes, your father. If even your father was killed by him, would you still love him?" Gongsun Qingming narrowed his eyes and asked.
Mingzhu panicked, "Impossible! This is impossible!"
"Is it impossible, or do you not believe it?" Gongsun Qingming pointed out sharply, and then said, "You can ask him if he killed it."
"It's not him!" she roared, shaking her head.
Gongsun Qingming's eyes were bright, and he said calmly, "He's in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, you should ask him now."
"I don't believe it!" Mingzhu took a few steps back in disbelief, then turned around abruptly, and ran out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.If Hongdi was killed by him, then why did he say no at the time, and why did he tell her that he wanted to take her back to Zhanwangfu.
Didn't you say you were going to leave?
Feng Zhanxiu, what exactly do you want?I don't believe it, I don't believe it, please tell me you didn't do that.
Gongsun Qingming looked at her figure running fast, lowered her head and sighed.Only then did he start to walk towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony slowly.She didn't die, so she didn't die, he was so happy.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all the ministers gathered together.On the side chair, Murong Feixue, who is the royal aunt, sat on the phoenix chair.
"The king of war has arrived—the empress has arrived—" the eunuch outside the hall shouted, and two figures flashed in everyone's eyes.
Yunni is wearing a phoenix crown, and the phoenix crown on the top of her head marks the identity of the queen.She led one end of the red hydrangea, Yingying walked into the hall.On the other side of the hydrangea, Feng Zhanxiu was still dressed in black silk.Only the girdle around the waist is only scarlet, which looks a little happy.He has no expression on his face, and his evil and charming appearance is indifferent.
All the ministers did not dare to have any objections, they only said, "Long live my king, and a thousand years old empress. Congratulations to my king, congratulations to my empress."
Amidst the sound of worship from the crowd, the two walked towards Murong Feixue.
At this time, another thin figure flashed outside the hall, but was stopped by the guards, and she shouted loudly, "Feng Zhanxiu!"
The sudden female voice made the atmosphere change suddenly, and everyone turned their heads suspiciously to look at the person coming.I saw the figure stopped by the guards outside the hall.She has long black hair draped over her shoulders, and her temples are slightly loose, and she is only tied up with a simple hairpin.The white silk dress made her look weaker and slimmer.
She has a thin oval face with deep shadows under her eyelids.His face was pale and looked a little sick.But her cheeks were flushed, and she could feel that she was suffering from a low fever.
Only those two pairs of eyes were dark and bright, shining brightly, like colored glaze.
Isn't she, she, Princess Pearl?
